This is a type of Frequent Flyer program for SMEs (PyMes). By entering the On Business ID in the booking points are earned.
On Business numbers can be added or changed in an Order in the same way as the Frequent Flyer, simply using the OrderChange message and including the <PassengerServicing>

2. Ancillaries & Special Services
Ancillaries can be booked in the initial booking flow and paid for with the flights.
Ancillaries can also be booked and held in unpaid (on hold) Orders, to be paid with the flights in the servicing flow.
Ancillaries can only be added to an Order after it has been paid for and issued.
Is not possible to cancel only the additional services (Ancillaries, Special Services) in an Order (you must call contact center), it is only possible to cancel them if you cancel the passenger and the flights to which they are associated.
Additional services can only be changed by calling the contact center today.
